You will love it, when you get an open road....Its such a raw experience, my Westy has around 200bhp, but much less than half the weight of the Z4.LeeZ4MR wrote: โMon Mar 04, 2024 7:43 pmNice one!
Yes and I've only had it since last September so I'm still getting to know it. I'm really looking forward to the better weather now for sure.
Thanks.davep10000 wrote: โWed Mar 06, 2024 10:32 amYou will love it, when you get an open road....Its such a raw experience, my Westy has around 200bhp, but much less than half the weight of the Z4.
A well-set up K series is a joyful thing in a light car like a Seven or Elise, you're going to have great fun with it in the summer. I'd rather like an S2000-engined or bike-engined Westfield, but I already have more cars than spaceLeeZ4MR wrote: โWed Mar 06, 2024 1:04 pmThanks.davep10000 wrote: โWed Mar 06, 2024 10:32 amYou will love it, when you get an open road....Its such a raw experience, my Westy has around 200bhp, but much less than half the weight of the Z4.
Mine is only 140bhp from a 1.8 K-series engine, however because it only weighs around 550kg, it still feels lively though I reckon(especially for a naturally aspirated engine).
It's actually the opposite as the front LSD gives it an awful lot of grip. Pretty certain it would run rings around my M140i which would end up in a hedge
Love that An Empire Stormtrooper in a blue suit. Well set up FWD is hard to fault on the road. Had a few Clios drive away from my old ///M on wet twisty roads and my even older Fiat Coupe used to eat M3s and happily keep pace with skoobies, back in the day.TitanTim wrote: โFri Mar 08, 2024 12:00 pmIt's actually the opposite as the front LSD gives it an awful lot of grip.

Looks to do quite well in stock form on the track

Thanks alot, it is a very confidence inspiring car to drive quickly whereas my 140i, great in a straight line but I've always been wary of it with no rear LSD which is what it really needs. Shame its only a retro fit.buzyg wrote: โFri Mar 08, 2024 1:06 pmLove that An Empire Stormtrooper in a blue suit. Well set up FWD is hard to fault on the road.
